Opening day: Jefferson County Master Gardeners farmers market

If you haven’t figured it out yet, we love farmer’s markets. Assuming you’re not sleeping off a hangover, there’s just no better way to spend a morning than perusing local goods in the open air. The vegetables taste better and fresher than what you get in the grocery store and you’re supporting local farmers and vendors.

This Saturday, the Jefferson County Master Gardeners kick off their weekly farmer’s market at the airport in Mid-County. They set up shop in (and outside of) one of the airport’s hangars and this market has plenty of produce and a lot of plants for you green thumbs out there.

The market will last through the end of the growing season.

When: 8 to 10 a.m. SaturdayWhere: The Jerry Ware terminal at the Jack Brooks Regional Airport, 4875 Parker Dr., BeaumontCost: Free to get in but bring small bills for vendors
